Asiatic Lilies are among the earliest lilies to bloom, lighting up the garden in late spring to early summer with large, upward-facing blossoms in vivid shades of red, orange, yellow, pink, and white. These lilies grow on strong, slender stems with narrow green leaves and require little staking. While they don’t have fragrance like some other lilies, their intense colors, reliability, and easy care make them a favorite among gardeners. Excellent in beds, borders, and containers, they also make long-lasting cut flowers for arrangements.
